Rice, ready-cooked, "plain", re-heated

Plain ready-cooked rice is rice that has been cooked before purchase; the figures here describe it after reheating. It mainly provides carbohydrate, with smaller amounts of protein and fat. Per 100g, it contains 34g of carbohydrate, 4.1g of protein and 1.9g of fat, and provides 682 kJ of energy.

Carbohydrate is a source of energy for the body, while protein contributes to the maintenance of muscles and other tissues. Plain ready-cooked rice can contain salt, so the salt content is relevant for people monitoring their intake. The amount eaten also affects its contribution to overall energy intake. Full nutrient figures, including salt, sugars, saturated fat and fibre, are shown in the tables below.
